No need for them to inter-operate (e.g. start a vm with libvirt then manage it with xl), but managing some with xl and others with libvirt should be a goal, I think :-/. If nothing else, it seems useful for troubleshooting. I wouldn't want to advise a user to try xl when things are failing for them with libvirt, only to find that afterwards their libvirt no longer worked at all.
